Perceptual cycles

R VanRullen - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2016 - cell.com
Brain function involves oscillations at various frequencies. This could imply that perception
and cognition operate periodically, as a succession of cycles mirroring the underlying …

Beyond the status quo: a role for beta oscillations in endogenous content (re) activation

B Spitzer, S Haegens - eneuro, 2017 - eneuro.org
Among the rhythms of the brain, oscillations in the beta frequency range (∼ 13–30 Hz) have
been considered the most enigmatic. Traditionally associated with sensorimotor functions …

Sequential sampling models in cognitive neuroscience: Advantages, applications, and extensions

BU Forstmann, R Ratcliff… - Annual review of …, 2016 - annualreviews.org
Sequential sampling models assume that people make speeded decisions by gradually
accumulating noisy information until a threshold of evidence is reached. In cognitive …

Beyond the FRN: Broadening the time-course of EEG and ERP components implicated in reward processing

JE Glazer, NJ Kelley, N Pornpattananangkul… - International Journal of …, 2018 - Elsevier
Most reward-related electroencephalogram (EEG) studies focus exclusively on the feedback-
related negativity (FRN, also known as feedback negativity or FN, medial-frontal negativity or …

Motor origin of temporal predictions in auditory attention

B Morillon, S Baillet - … of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017 - National Acad Sciences
In behavior, action and perception are inherently interdependent. However, the actual
mechanistic contributions of the motor system to sensory processing are unknown. We …

Perceptual decision making in rodents, monkeys, and humans

TD Hanks, C Summerfield - Neuron, 2017 - cell.com
Perceptual decision making is the process by which animals detect, discriminate, and
categorize information from the senses. Over the past two decades, understanding how …

Proactive sensing of periodic and aperiodic auditory patterns

JM Rimmele, B Morillon, D Poeppel, LH Arnal - Trends in cognitive …, 2018 - cell.com
The ability to predict when something will happen facilitates sensory processing and the
ensuing computations. Building on the observation that neural activity entrains to periodic …

Internal and external influences on the rate of sensory evidence accumulation in the human brain

SP Kelly, RG O'Connell - Journal of Neuroscience, 2013 - Soc Neuroscience
We frequently need to make timely decisions based on sensory evidence that is weak,
ambiguous, or noisy resulting from conditions in the external environment (eg, a cluttered …

Decision-related pupil dilation reflects upcoming choice and individual bias

JW De Gee, T Knapen… - Proceedings of the …, 2014 - National Acad Sciences
A number of studies have shown that pupil size increases transiently during effortful
decisions. These decision-related changes in pupil size are mediated by central …

Delta–beta coupled oscillations underlie temporal prediction accuracy

LH Arnal, KB Doelling, D Poeppel - Cerebral Cortex, 2015 - academic.oup.com
The ability to generate temporal predictions is fundamental for adaptive behavior. Precise
timing at the time-scale of seconds is critical, for instance to predict trajectories or to select …
